Quality Road Anchors Lane’s End Stallion Roster at $200K

Quality Road (Elusive Quality), the sire of 17 stakes winners in 2023 including GI Preakness S. hero National Treasure, will stand the 2024 breeding season for $200,000, the same fee he commanded in 2023.

The 17-year-old stallion, is responsible for an additional five winners at the graded level this season, including 'TDN Rising Star' Agate Road, who makes his next appearance in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf at Santa Anita Nov. 3.

Accordingly, it has been a strong yearling sales season for Quality Road, who was represented at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga sale by a colt out of Grade III winner I'm a Looker (Henny Hughes) that was sold to AMO Racing for $1.1 million, while he had no fewer than 10 yearling sell for $500,000 or more at Keeneland September, topped by a $900,000 half-sister to Grade III winner Moonlight d'Oro (Medaglia d'Oro).

Flightline (Tapit) stood his first season at Lane's End in 2023 at $200,000, having attracted an impressive array of top-quality mares. The covering fee for the 2022 Longines World's Highest Rated Racehorse has been reduced to $150,000 for the upcoming season.

Flightline was held to 152 mares in his first season. We adjusted his fee for his second season in keeping with what has become 'industry norm', while continuing to limit his book close to 150 mares again,” said Lane's End's Bill Farish.

New to the Lane's End stallion barn for 2024 is top Breeders' Cup chance Up To the Mark (Not This Time), while it was recently announced that Arcangelo (Arrogate) would be added to the roster at the conclusion of his racing career.

Candy Ride (Arg) (Ride the Rails), whose son Geaux Rocket Ride will be among the top picks in the upcoming GI Breeders' Cup Classic, will command a fee of $75,000, while his successful son Twirling Candy stands for $60,000. Candy Ride's champion son Game Winner, a top-10 freshman sire of yearlings in 2023, will serve mares at $20,000.
